I expect it will be a number containing no more than one syllable.

Re: Football Season 2012/2013
Its the thing of the times now that Cardiff have to change colours.
As l have said before, Money speaks in football, everything connected to a club now involves 'how much money we can make' its like Spurs for example.
If and when Spurs build this new stadium, they plan to change the name of the ground in the means to make money out of it.
Trouble is, it won't change the price of entry.

Re: Football Season 2012/2013
It's all one-upmanship. Swansea built a brand new 20,000 seater stadium, Cardiff build a bigger one. Swansea get in to the Premiership, Cardiff want to do something like this.
The idea is to make Cardiff more marketable (they're also changing their name from the Bluebirds to the Red Dragons) and the owners have promised to pump £100m in to the club for going along with this. As a Swans fan I love to watch Cardiff fail but I see both sides of this. Traditional fans don't want such a radical change however £100m being put in to a club (and presumably a sizeable chunk going on players) that's not even Premiership quality is pretty impressive.

Re: Football Season 2012/2013
very sad day and I hope the fans make a statement with their feet and don't turn up and don't buy the new kit either. You can't change tradition and if they wanted they could have made the red kit the away kit

Re: Football Season 2012/2013
The owners are morons. Cardiff are not going to become popular in the far east because they wear red. The owners have looked at the clubs that do well in Asia (United, Liverpool, Arsenal) and have concluded it must the be shirt colour! There are other reasons those clubs are well known internationally....

The colour red symbolized luck and good fortune in China and some other Asian countries. There are certainly other reasons, but it wouldn't surprise me at all if the shirt colour contributes.
